Prepare Syrniki Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine 200 grams of farmer's cheese (or ricotta), 1 large egg, 50 grams of flour, and 20 grams of sugar. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated, forming a tender dough.

Form Pancakes

Scoop portions of the mixture and form into small patties. If the dough is too sticky, lightly dust your hands with flour to make handling easier.

Cook Syrniki

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat with a light coating of oil or butter. Place the patties in the pan, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until they achieve a golden brown crust.

Serve

Serve the warm syrniki with a dollop of chocolate spread, a side of sliced mango, and a hint of sour cream or cream for topping. Enjoy immediately for the best texture and taste.
